Introduction

Tourism has received an international reputation as a never-declining industry in the history of world economy. In China, tourism has a history of almost 55 years since the first travel agency founded in November 1949. But during the following 30 years, Chinese tourism was advancing slowly due to political reasons. According to the data reported by National Tourism Administration Bureau of China, only 1.809 million people including 0.23 million foreigners visited China in 1978. However, in 1998, China received 63.4784 million international visitors, including 7.1077 million foreign tourists, which is 35 times that in 1978.
China has become one of the most popular tourist destinations and one of the leading countries of world tourism industry.
Due to the development of tourism in China, tourism English becomes more and more important nowadays in China. As a result, tourism English appears as a term in many researches and course books with the meaning of English language that is used for tourism. Since China has been recognized as an approved destination by many countries officially, more and more foreign tourists have been flowing into China for a visit, and tourism English has become necessary and booming as a result,from airport to hotel and restaurant, from travel to tourist spot. English is used whenever a foreign tourist is received. We suppose that China’s tourism would not have advanced smoothly without the development of tourism English.
Therefore, some researches about tourism English should be done. But in the author’s eyes, distinctive features of tourism English are to be explored firstly. Only if some distinctive features of tourism English are made clear, some work on translation or practice about tourism English should be done in order to push forward the Chinese tourism. That’s why the author of the paper chooses “On Distinctive features of tourism English” as its title.
Before this paper was started, lots of materials were checked and read. Findings were made that there have been a few researches about the distinctive features of tourism English from the point of linguistics. Therefore, more researches should still be done on the distinctive features of tourism English from the point of linguistics so that the researches could promote the development of tourism English and also could push forward the development of tourism, economy and the culture of China. That is the purpose of this paper. The topic will be analyzed from three aspects as follows---the scope of the use of tourism English, the features of language function of tourism English, and the linguistic features of tourism English. The author will give some examples to explain it in the following..

论旅游英语的特征
The paper deals mainly with tourism English in three aspects: the scope of the use of tourism English, the features of language functions of tourism English and the linguistic feature of tourism English. The third aspect includes lexical feature, grammatical feature, courtesy feature, stylistic feature and culture feature. Through the research, the distinctive features of tourism English stands out more clearly. It is believable that the research on the topic can promote the development of tourism English and also can push forward the development of tourism, economy, culture in China, and the detailed study on tourism English itself can help the translation and practice of tourism English, but the research is just from the point of linguistics, more researches are needed to be done from some other aspects.
Conclusively the basic functions and features of tourism English are presented clearly as above, they are helpful to the study and use of tourism English and tourism English translation. This research is only the first step in the study of tourism English. Further studies are needed.
